Component Library
-
Hello All,
I am trying to put together a Component Library. I would like to have a library of doors and windows, that will cut into a building face. I have made a few test doors and windows and saved them as a SU files and as a local component collection. My components have the to glue to any and to cut opening. However, when I open an existing building model I have, and bring in the component door from my Component Collection, the component does not "snap" to any face, nor does it cut an opening. If I try to rotate the component to be flush with the face, it does not cut the opening; creating Z-buffering fighting.
When I make a Component door in the existing building model, the component works great, snapping to any face and cutting an opening to those faces.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is not working?
Thanks....

Are the walls in the model where this is a problem in a group or component? If so, what happens when you open that group or component for editing and then import the door or window?

Hi Dave, they are in a Group, but I have opened the group for editing and this is what is happening. Thats why its a little strange to me.

Could you post a component or two? Or, if you don't want to share publicly, do you want to PM them to me? I'll see what I can see.
